i'll check out your link, thanks x
thats what I was told be a insurance broker but it is best to shop around, I just think they should not look on BR as a bad thing xx some people have no choiceIf you woke up this morning congratulations, you have another chance :j0 -
Mine is up for renewai in Feb so will be interested to see how you get on Conf.
I must admit when I renewed last year whilst still BR I didn't have any problems with finding an insurer and most I tried didn't rate on BR so that was good. However if insurance has gone up in general then it will be a case of shopping around for the best deal.
Good luck hun x0 -
I would recommend you find your insurance through the main MSE site. I saved £££s last year renewing mine and OH's car insurance. Be sure you go through all the steps and see if there is cashback.

Hi confused!
I recently renewed and went through Co-op, my renewal came through from Direct Line who I had been with for years and years as they were always the cheapest but it went up over £150 this time!!! :eek: Odd I thought as I hadn't had an accident or changed my car or moved, and then when I checked my credit report I saw they had done a credit check before sending out the renewal :mad: So I am assuming my BR made a difference.
So I got a quote online from the co-op which was less than direct line by over a £100 and that included full breakdown cover which I need as the car likes to break down
I called them and spoke to a lovely chap and said I did want to go ahead with it but would really like to pay monthly and that I knew I would fail credit check as discharged BR, he said that was fine and he could override it, so he put it through as normal, I failed, he pressed a few buttons and hey presto! I have car insurance at a good amount and paying monthly which is giving me those important green ticks! :T:T:T
Our house insurance is due for renewal next month and I will be going to the Co-op again as really impressed with them.0 -
Our house insurance is with the coop, I did it online and got accepted for monthly payments, they did a check as it is recorded on my file, I was playing with google when I found the BR insurance site so it would be nice to see if you get a decent quote our see if they are full off wind. I have always used MSE or the others in the past xxHi confused!
